the police have to deal with a lot more than this on a daily basis. Who would want to be the one intervening in domestic fights etc.

San Francisco police investigating what top city officials portray as racist and sexist videos produced by Bayview District officers said Thursday that new clips had come to light -- including an image of a black officer eating from a dog bowl and one of an Asian officer having difficulty riding a bicycle.

But one thing was clear: No employer, public or private, would want workers producing videos like those on work time, using company uniforms and equipment.

"They are not unlawful, but they would likely violate any company's policy against harassment," said Garry Mathiason, a senior partner with the San Francisco employment law firm of Littler Mendelson.

...city officials say the videos were made illicitly during work hours using department uniforms and equipment.

the videos include content that could be viewed by many people as sexual or racial slurs. Most large companies these days have anti-harassment policies that prohibit sexual and racial jokes, slurs, comments and pictures.

Mathiason pointed in particular to a section of the video in which three women police officers mimicked the 1970s TV show "Charlie's Angels" and made lewd gestures with their tongues, after which a male police officer dressed in drag grabbed his breast.

"If you put that video clip into almost any work environment, it would violate company policy," Mathiason said.

The issue is heightened for public agencies like police departments, which have an obligation to serve the entire citizenry.
